Family and Medical Leave Act

Enacted in 1993, the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) was designed to allow employees to take periods of leave from their jobs for various health- and family-related reasons. For qualifying employees, the FMLA generally provides for up to twelve weeks per year of unpaid leave for workers who give adequate notice and obtain medical certification of the need to take time off for a qualifying personal or family medical condition. 29 U.S.C. § 2612. Determination of whether you qualify for FMLA leave is often complicated. Additionally, the FMLA makes it unlawful for an employer to retaliate against or interfere with an individual for taking FMLA leave or for opposing a practice made unlawful by the FMLA. 29 U.S.C. § 2615(a)(2).
